Never heard of them, but grew up listening to punk rock in the 80s 90s. Awesome!

Great recording....but...Ugh...jam sessions for every song. Redundant song selection.

I think I just like the earlier albums. Hunky Dory, Rise and Fall.....

Not usually my genre of music - but have to say I liked it a lot!

Great album from these alternative rock icons...love the fuzz pedal sound on this album!

Listened to this three times in two days... I have listened to lots of Pink Floyd, including all of The Dark Side of the Moon...For some reason I have never listened to The Wall straight through, I am blown away by this masterpiece!!

Two songs. Two songs that I like. Two songs that I like on this album. Everything else. Meh.

I listened to Malcolm Gladwell's Paul Simon interview/memoir audiobook, Miracle and Wonder, when it was first released in 2021, just now listening to Graceland. What an impressive album, going to give this one a few more listens!

Liked the country sound of the last few tracks...efen though I am not a country music fan. The rest was just bland for me.

Pioneers of RAP. Had this on cassette back in then!!

AWFUL. Just too random.

Much better than the last album I had on this list from Tom Waits.

How many times have I listened to this album. To me, probably their best.

Well thAt was an awesome discovery! Didn't know the surviving band members from Minutemen started another band!?

Influential, yes. One of the greatest albums....no.

Billy Joel

2 finished listening 12/13

Not getting this unfortunately, wanted this to be great...but I think I prefer my Metallica without Symphony, and my Symphony without Metallica.

And that was a weird ride...

Enjoyed this. Iron Man cover was awesome!

Bought this album as soon as it came out in 1991, on cassette tape. One of my favorites albums of theirs.

This is my 3rd or 4th Tom Waits album on this list, best one in my opinion yet.

Awesome! Celebrating punk rock's unofficial 50th anniversary this month!

I liked this way more than I thought I would

Just can't get into this.

Whole bunch of 5/5 songs here, but the album is just too long.

Lots of Radiohead albums on this list. I appreciate their artistry, but I just can't get into them for some reason.
